AN Olympics star has gone viral but once again it is not thanks to his athletic accomplishments.
Team USA star Quincy Hall left fans bewildered after they spotted him preparing for his 400m heat.
Hall wore baggy underpants underneath his tight skinsuit, so they were still visible once he was changed.
Fans were shocked by his clothing choice but it did not affect the athlete, who qualified for the 400m semi-final with a time of 44.28 that was only bettered by one of his competitors.
Neverthless Hall still went viral for his choice of underwear at the Olympics as fans felt he was “crazy”.
One reacted saying: “Tell me this isn’t the craziest thing you’ve seen thus far in the Olympics. Quincy Hall with the loose boxers under the track suit.”
Another added: “That’s extremely concerning behaviour.”
A third wrote: “That is actually pretty bizarre but whatever works.”
And another commented: “The commitment to the lucky underwear is real.”
Hall noticed he went viral on social media and reacted in kind, saying: “Yea way country boy big draws.”

Hall will hope his underwear continue to be a source of luck ahead of the 400m semi-final today.
The 26-year-old won bronze in the 400m World Championships last year, while he helped USA win gold in the 4x400m relay.
Several athletes have gone viral at the Olympics including a German rower with an unusual name and a well-endowed pole vaulter.
